A Kentuckian who has suddenly made a for
tune is Col. Edward J. AICEIurdO. FL fought
through the war OF the Federal side and came
out poverty and the commander Of
regiment. However, he was gifted with busi-
ness abilities and was connected with a number
of extensive schemes in California and New
York, sometimes making monPyand sometimes
losing il. He finally came to London four or
five years ago with nothing but his wis, but
soon got an interest in an unexp!orcd diamond
mine in South Africa. It developed into a rich
discovery and is making fortune every year.
He floated the Queensland quicksilver mine
and the KabOOnga gold mine, which is also
located in Queensland, Australia. His latest
financial speculation, however, eclipses all his
other undertakings. On Wednesday last he
invited subscriptions for Ei00,0O0 debenture
bonds, part only Of the capital required to con-
struct a railway from Lorenzo Marques, n sea
port on Portuguese territory on the African
coast, TO the gold-mining region in the Trans
vaal. In one day three times the amount re-
quired was subscribed The debentures are al
ready quoted at two per cent. premium. He
will make quarter OF million in cool cash
by this transaction, and if his luck continues
will soon be one Of the richest Americans in
London.

Mr.. Keene claims that a series OF articles so
practical and complete has never been pub

country, aud as Mr.. Keene has a very extensive
reputation in this particular branch, his state
ment can be accepted as a fact Therefore
every angler will find the series instructive as
